I haven't played Stardew Valley, but it did remind me of similar situations in other video games, such as hitting a villager with a net in Animal Crossing. ...Also, "virtually"? Heh. [[User:Nyperold|Nyperold]] ([[User talk:Nyperold|talk]]) 17:47, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

:Yes I also thought about that pun. Have tried to add it into the title text explanation, but this could probably be phrased better by someone native to the English language. ;-) But usualy it is easier to make someone edit what they do not like to something better than to get them to start the explanation ;-) --[[User:Kynde|Kynde]] ([[User talk:Kynde|talk]]) 19:41, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

I get the feeling Randall's feeling down at the moment, and he's using Stardew Valley as an escape, especially so soon after being mentioned in #1790. It seems like a bit of a random time to start talking about Stardew Valley. [[Special:Contributions/141.101.98.214|141.101.98.214]] 21:39, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

Expanded the explanation. Feel free to add on to my post. --JayRulesXKCD what's up? 12:16, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

OK ;-) --Kynde (talk) 15:19, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

Is it just me or is Cueball drawn "fatter" than usual? 162.158.91.89 14:00, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

I was thinking that the whole style of this comic is rather uncharacteristically of xkcd. Maybe someone who have played the game, could confirm (or not) my suspicion that there are some of these differences that comes from him "copying" parts from the game. The first I noticed was that the caption was in a frame. This almost never happens. Either it is just above the panel below, or at the top of the panel inside it. The second was the many speech bubbles which are not used for the speech, but for sounds made by things or involuntarily (yawning, snooring and splishing). Only when the cat wakes up and mrowls and Cueballs spoken word is normal style. And yes I had not seen this but maybe the lines are in general a bit fatter, not just Cueballs. --Kynde (talk) 15:19, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
Randall was probably just deciding to go for a more organized comic. --JayRulesXKCD what's up? 18:30, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
I think he has done something similar before, but it is rare. And that was why I wondered if there were also such bubbles in the game, or captions etc. I do not think he tried to make it look organized. The only organized about it is the caption frame. --Kynde (talk) 19:41, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
